EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 18th century print showcases a collection of Delftware from the Netherlands, featuring a table setting adorned with plates, pitchers, and various decorative pieces. The black ground of the chromolithograph beautifully contrasts the intricate gold and scarlet designs that adorn each piece. Delft, a city in the Netherlands, was renowned for its fine pottery production during the 17th and 18th centuries. The Delftware was characterized by its distinctive blue and white designs, inspired by Chinese porcelain, but this print highlights the versatility of the craft, as these pieces exhibit intricate gold and scarlet decorations. The table setting includes various pieces, such as an assiette (plate), burette (pitcher), cock (jug), and a rooster, all hand-finished with intricate designs. The botanical motifs and animal figurines add to the overall charm and elegance of the set. This print is a hand-finished chromolithograph, a technique that involves using multiple lithographic stones, each with a different color, to create a highly detailed and vibrant image. The process was popular during the late 19th century, and this print is taken from Ris Paquots "General History of Ancient French and Foreign Glazed Pottery," published in Paris in 1874. The print serves as a testament to the rich history and artistic prowess of Delftware and the chromolithographic process.
